Mike Rapoport a9c38c5d26 dma-mapping: remove bogus test for pfn_valid from dma_map_resource
dma_map_resource() uses pfn_valid() to ensure the range is not RAM.
However, pfn_valid() only checks for availability of the memory map for a
PFN but it does not ensure that the PFN is actually backed by RAM.

As dma_map_resource() is the only method in DMA mapping APIs that has this
check, simply drop the pfn_valid() test from dma_map_resource().

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
